Answer:
the ancient tale
Explanation:
In this poem, the Swan is a metaphor for the spiritual pursuit of one who treads the path of self-realization. The metaphor refers to the ability of the bird to move between different planes of reality (earth, water, air) without clinging to any of them.
In the poem Kabir indicates a place where the swan can be free of doubt and sadness, this place would be the heaven that the author compares with an old tale in the passage:
"There, woods flourish in everlasting spring,
And its fragrance makes us move forward more and more.
Immersed in it, the heart, like a bee, was inebriated.
Immense in her, she no longer wants any joy"
The excerpt from Chapter 5 reveals Dede's admiration for Minerva's assertiveness. The excerpt is culled from The Time of the Butterflies by Julia Alvarez.
<h3>Dede and Minerva - The Time of the Butterflies</h3>
The author's depiction of Dede shows her to be practical compliant and gentle. She is the one who gives over her own to make peace amongst those that she loves.
On the other end of the spectrum is Minerva. Minerva is bold, adventurous, strong-willed, and idealistic.
Although Minerva is the courageous one, Dede is the one who ends up dedicating her life to the upbringing of her fallen sister's children, thus keeping their legacy as heroes alive.
The correct answer, thus, is A.
